1 Samuel 30:23-25

Common English Bible

²³ “Brothers!” David said. “Don’t act that way with the things the Lord has given us. He has protected us and handed over to us the raiding party that had attacked us. ²⁴ How could anyone agree with you on this plan? The share of those who went into battle and the share of those who stayed with the supplies will be divided equally.” ²⁵ So from that day forward, David made that a regulation and a law in Israel, which remains in place even now.
